INFORMATION REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements included in this Form 10-K, particularly those included in Part I, Items 1 and 2 - Business and Properties, and Part II, Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A"), may be considered "forward-looking statements" because such statements relate to matters which have not yet occurred. For example, phrases such as "we anticipate," "believe" or "expect" indicate that it is possible that the event anticipated, believed or expected may not occur. Should such event not occur, then the result which we expected also may not occur or occur in a different manner, which may be more or less favorable to us. We do not undertake any obligations to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances.

Any forward-looking statements included in MD&A, or elsewhere in this report, reflect management's best judgment based on known factors and involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to those discussed below. Any forward-looking information provided by us pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions established by recent securities legislation should be evaluated in the context of these factors. See Part II - Item 7 for Cautionary Statements.

Financial Information About Industry Segments

We are engaged solely in the business of developing, constructing, owning and operating residential apartments and commercial real estate. See Part II, Item 8 - Note 9 for information regarding our operating segments.

Narrative Description of Business

General

Our current investment objectives are consistent with our original objectives, which are to provide cash distributions from the operation or financing of our properties, obtain long-term capital gain treatment on the sale or refinancing of properties, provide limited partners with deferrals of federal income taxes, and preserve limited partners' capital. Proceeds of any sale or refinancing of our properties may be distributed to limited partners, or may be used to repay debt or to make capital improvements to properties.

The properties we currently own, which are described in the following section, are the same as those we originally acquired. Our properties are in a condition suitable for their intended use. We periodically evaluate whether to retain, refinance, or sell or otherwise dispose of these properties, with a view toward meeting the above investment objectives, including the making of distributions. In deciding whether to sell a property, we will consider factors such as potential capital appreciation, mortgage pre-payment penalties, market conditions, cash flow and federal income tax considerations, including possible adverse federal income tax consequences to the limited partners. Distributions have been suspended to fund current and future capital improvements and debt repayment. For information on distributions, see Part II, Item 5 of this Form 10-K. In addition, see "Potential Consolidation" later in this section for a discussion of our potential consolidation with other affiliated entities.

Joint Venture Investments

NTS Willows Phase II Joint Venture

On September 1, 1984, we entered into a joint venture agreement with NTS-Properties IV to develop, construct, own and operate a 144 - unit luxury apartment complex on an 8.29 acre site in Louisville, Kentucky known as The Willows of Plainview Phase II. The term of the joint venture shall continue until dissolved. Dissolution shall occur upon, but not before, the first to occur of the following:

The apartment complex is encumbered by permanent mortgages with two insurance companies. Both loans are secured by a first mortgage on the property. The outstanding balance of the mortgages on December 31, 2002 is $3,984,571 ($2,494,654 and $1,489,917). The mortgages are recorded as a liability of the joint venture. Both mortgages bear interest at a fixed rate of 7.2% and are due January 5, 2013. Monthly principal payments are based upon a 15-year amortization schedule. At maturity, we believe the loans will have been repaid based on the current rate of amortization.

The net cash flow for each calendar quarter is distributed to the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interests. The term "Net Cash Flow" means the excess, if any, of (A) the gross receipts from the operations of the joint venture property (including investment income) for such period plus any funds released from previously established reserves (referred to in clause (iv) below), over (B) the sum of (i) all cash operating expenses paid by the joint venture property during such period in the course of business, (ii) capital expenditures during such period not funded by capital contributions, loans or paid out of previously established reserves, (iii) payments during such period on account of amortization of the principal of any debts or liabilities of the joint venture property and (iv) reserves for contingent liabilities and future expenses of the joint venture property. "Percentage Interest" means that percentage which the capital contributions of a partner bears to the aggregate capital contributions of all partners. Net income or loss is allocated between the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interests. Our ownership share was 90.30% on December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Lakeshore/University II Joint Venture

On January 23, 1995, a joint venture known as the Lakeshore/University II Joint Venture (the "L/U II Joint Venture") was formed among us and NTS-Properties IV, NTS-Properties Plus Ltd. and NTS/Fort Lauderdale, Ltd., affiliates of our General Partner, for purposes of owning Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II, University Business Center Phase II (property sold during 1998) and certain undeveloped tracts of land adjacent to the Lakeshore Business Center development.

The table below identifies which properties were contributed to the L/U II Joint Venture and the respective owners of such properties prior to the formation of the joint venture.

The term of the joint venture shall continue until dissolved. Dissolution shall occur upon, but not before, the first to occur of the following:

The properties of the L/U II Joint Venture are encumbered by mortgages payable as follows:

       on 12/31/02                     Encumbered Property

  $        1,844,049       Lakeshore Business Center Phase III

9

The loans are recorded as liabilities of the joint venture. The mortgages of Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II bear interest at a fixed rate of 8.125% and are due August 1, 2008. Monthly principal payments are based upon a 12-year amortization schedule. At maturity, we believe the loans will have been repaid based on the current rate of amortization. The mortgage of Lakeshore Business Center Phase III bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR daily rate plus 2.3% and is due September 8, 2003. We anticipate replacing the construction loan with permanent financing at or before its maturity.

On July 1, 2000 and July 1, 1999, we contributed $500,000 and $1,737,000, respectively, to the L/U II Joint Venture. The other partners in the joint venture did not make capital contributions at that time. Accordingly, the ownership percentages of the other partners in the joint venture decreased. Effective July 1, 2000, our percentage of ownership in the L/U II Joint Venture is 81.19%, as compared to 79.45% prior to July 1, 2000, and 69.23% prior to July 1, 1999.

On July 23, 1999, the L/U II Joint Venture closed on the sale of 2.4 acres of land adjacent to the Lakeshore Business Center for a purchase price of $528,405. We had a 79.45% interest in the joint venture at that date. Our statement of operations reflects a net gain of approximately $71,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999.

The net cash flow for each calendar quarter is distributed to the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interest. The term "Net Cash Flow" means the excess, if any, of (A) the sum of (i) the gross receipts of the joint venture properties for such period (including loan proceeds), other than capital contributions, plus (ii) any funds released from previously established reserves (referred to in clause (B) (iv) below), over (B) the sum of (i) all cash operating expenses paid by the joint venture during such period in the course of business, (ii) capital expenditures paid in cash during such period, (iii) payments during such period on account of amortization of the principal of any debts or liabilities of the joint venture and (iv) reserves for contingent liabilities and future expenses of the joint venture, as established by the partners; provided, however, that the amounts referred to in (B) (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall only be taken into account to the extent not funded by capital contributions or paid out of previously established reserves. "Percentage Interest" means that percentage which the capital contributions of a partner bears to the aggregate capital contributions of all the partners. Net income or loss is allocated between the partners in accordance with their respective percentage interests pursuant to the joint venture agreements. Our ownership share was 81.19% on December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

In June 2002, NTS-Properties Plus, one of the original members of the L/U II Joint Venture, merged into ORIG, LLC, an affiliate of ours. As a result of the merger, ORIG has succeeded to the interests of NTS-Properties Plus in the joint venture. See the information under the caption "Ownership of Joint Venture" in Part II, Item 7 of this Form 10-K.

Competition

Our properties are subject to competition from similar types of properties (including, in certain areas, properties owned or managed by affiliates of our General Partner) in the respective vicinities in which they are located. Such competition is generally for the retention of existing tenants at lease expiration or for new tenants when vacancies occur. We maintain the suitability and competitiveness of our properties primarily on the basis of effective rents, amenities and service provided to tenants. Competition is expected to increase in the future as a result of the construction of additional properties. In the vicinity of The Willows of Plainview Phase II, there are three apartment communities scheduled to start construction in 2003. The first community will have approximately 300 units and is scheduled to break ground in Spring 2003. The second community will have approximately 500 units and is scheduled to begin construction in August 2003. The third community will have approximately 200 units and is expected to start construction some time in the late summer of 2003. The expected completion date for all three communities is unknown at this time. We have not commissioned a formal market analysis of competitive conditions in any market in which we own properties, but rely upon the market condition knowledge of the employees of NTS Development Company who manage and supervise leasing for each property. See "Conflict of Interest."

Management of Properties

NTS Development Company, an affiliate of our General Partner, directs the management of our properties pursuant to a written agreement (the "Agreement"). NTS Development Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of NTS Corporation. Mr. J. D. Nichols has a controlling interest in NTS Corporation and is a General Partner of NTS-Properties Associates V. Under the Agreement, NTS Development Company establishes rental policies and rates and directs the marketing activity of leasing personnel. NTS Development Company also coordinates the purchase of equipment and supplies, maintenance activity and the selection of all vendors, suppliers and independent contractors.

As compensation for its services, NTS Development Company received a total of $283,677 in property management fees for the year ended December 31, 2002. $220,682 was received from the commercial properties and $62,995 was received from the residential property. The fee is equal to 6% of gross revenues from commercial properties and 5% of gross revenues from residential properties.

In addition, the Agreement requires us to purchase all insurance relating to the managed properties, to pay the direct out-of-pocket expenses of NTS Development Company in connection with our operations, including the cost of goods and materials used for and on our behalf, and to reimburse NTS Development Company for the salaries, commissions, fringe benefits and related employment expenses of personnel.

11

The term of the Agreement between NTS Development Company and us was for an initial period of five years, and renewed thereafter for succeeding one-year periods, until cancelled. The Agreement is subject to cancellation by either party upon 60-days written notice. As of December 31, 2002, the Agreement is still in effect.

Working Capital Practices

Information about our working capital practices is included in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7.

Seasonal Operations

We do not consider our operations to be seasonal to any material degree.

Conflict of Interest

Principals of the General Partner or its affiliates own or operate real estate properties that compete, directly or indirectly, with properties owned by us. Because we were organized by, and are operated by the General Partner, conflicts arising from our competition with properties owned by affiliated partnerships are not resolved through arms-length negotiations, but through the exercise of the General Partner's judgment consistent with its fiduciary responsibility to the limited partners and our investment objectives and policies. The General Partner is accountable to the limited partners as a fiduciary and consequently must exercise good faith and integrity in handling our affairs. A provision has been made in our Partnership Agreement that the General Partner will not be liable to us except for acts or omissions performed or omitted fraudulently, in bad faith or with negligence. The Partnership Agreement provides for indemnification of the General Partner by us for liability resulting from errors in judgment or certain acts or omissions. The General Partner and its affiliates have the right to compete with our properties including the right to develop competing properties now and in the future, in addition to the existing properties which may compete directly or indirectly.

NTS Development Company, an affiliate of the General Partner, acts in a similar capacity for other affiliated entities in the same geographic region where we have property interests. As a result of the affiliation between NTS Development Company and our General Partner, there is a conflict of interest between our General Partner's duty to the limited partners and its incentive to cause us to retain our properties because of the payment of fees to NTS Development Company. We believe the agreement with NTS Development Company is on terms no less favorable to us than those which could be obtained from a third party for similar services in the same geographical region in which the properties are located. The contract is terminable by either party without penalty upon 60-days written notice.

12

Employees

We have no employees. Under the terms of the property management agreement with NTS Development Company, NTS Development Company makes its employees available to perform services for us. In addition to the property management fees that we pay to NTS Development Company, we reimburse this affiliate for the actual costs of providing such services. See Part II, Item 8 - Note 7 and Part III, Item 13 for further discussions of related party transactions.

Potential Consolidation

Our General Partner, along with the general partners of four other public limited partnerships affiliated with us, is investigating a consolidation with other affiliated entities. In addition to these affiliated entities, the consolidation would likely involve several private partnerships and our General Partner. The new combined entity would own all of the properties currently owned by the public limited partnerships, and the limited partners or other owners of these entities would receive an ownership interest in the combined entity. The number of ownership interests to be received by limited partners and the other owners of the entities participating in the consolidation would likely be determined based on the relative value of the assets contributed to the combined entity by each public limited partnership, reduced by any indebtedness assumed by the entity. The majority of the contributed assets would consist of real estate properties, whose relative values would be based on appraisals. The potential benefits of consolidating the entities include: reducing the administrative costs as a percentage of assets and revenues by creating a single public entity; diversifying limited partners' investments in real estate to include additional markets and types of properties; and creating an asset base and capital structure that may enable greater access to the capital markets. There are, however, also a number of potential adverse consequences to a consolidation such as, the expenses associated with a consolidation and the fact that the duration of the new entity would likely exceed our anticipated duration, and that the interests of our limited partners in the combined entity would be smaller on a percentage basis than their interests in us. Further, the new entity may adopt investment and management policies that are different from those presently used by our General Partner. A consolidation requires approval of our limited partners and the limited partners and other equity holders of the other proposed participants to the consolidation. Accordingly, there is no assurance that the consolidation will occur.

Item 3 - Legal Proceedings

On December 12, 2001, three individuals filed an action in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Contra Costa against our General Partner, the general partners of four public partnerships affiliated with us and several individuals and entities affiliated with us. The action purports to bring claims on behalf of a class of limited partners based on, among other things, tender offers made by the public partnerships and an affiliate of our General Partner. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the prices at which limited partnership interests were purchased in these tender offers were too low. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages and equitable relief, including an order directing the disposition of the properties owned by the public partnerships and the distribution of the proceeds. No amounts have been accrued as a liability for this action in our consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2002. Under an indemnification agreement with our General Partner, we are responsible for the costs of defending this action. For the year ended December 31, 2002, our share of these legal costs was approximately $80,000, which was expensed.

On September 24, 2002, in connection with the above-described lawsuit, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed two of the individuals and one of the entities that had objected to the lawsuit on personal jurisdiction grounds. This dismissal was the result of an agreement under which some defendants agreed not to contest jurisdiction and plaintiffs agreed to dismiss other defendants. Additionally, on October 22, 2002, the court issued an order sustaining the demurrer of the general partners of three limited partnerships affiliated with us. The effect of this ruling is that these three general partners are no longer parties to the lawsuit. On the same date the court overruled the demurrer of our General Partner, the general partner of one other partnership affiliated with us and one individual and two entities affiliated with us. The entities and individuals whose demurrers were overruled, including our General Partner, remain defendants in the lawsuit. Our General Partner believes the lawsuit is without merit, and is vigorously defending it.

On February 27, 2003, two individuals filed a class and derivative action in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Kentucky against our General Partner, the general partners of three public partnerships affiliated with us and several individuals and entities affiliated with us. On March 21, 2003, the complaint was amended to include the general partners of a public partnership affiliated with us and a partnership that was affiliated with us but is no longer in existence. In the amended complaint, the plaintiffs purport to bring claims on behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on behalf of us and affiliated public partnerships based on alleged overpayments of fees, prohibited investments, improper failures to make distributions, purchases of limited partnership interests at insufficient prices and other violations of the limited partnership agreements. The plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, compensatory and punitive damages in an unspecified amount, an accounting, the appointment of a receiver or liquidating trustee, the entry of an order of dissolution against the public partnerships, a declaratory judgment, and injunctive relief. Our General Partner believes that this action is without merit, and intends to vigorously defend it.

14

We do not believe there is any other litigation threatened against us other than routine litigation arising out of the ordinary course of business, some of which is expected to be covered by insurance, none of which is expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations except as discussed herein.

Item 4 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

None.

PART II

Item 5 - Market for Registrant's Limited Partnership Interests and Related Partner Matters

There is no established trading market for the limited partnership interests, nor is one likely to develop. We had 1,352 limited partners as of January 31, 2003. Cash distributions and allocations of income (loss) are made as described in Item 8 - Note 1D.

No distributions were paid during 2002 or 2001. Quarterly distributions are determined based on current cash balances, cash flow being generated by operations and cash reserves needed for future leasing costs, tenant finish costs and capital improvements. Distributions have been suspended to fund current and future capital improvements and debt repayment. Our ability to pay distributions is dependent upon, among other things, our ability to refinance properties on favorable terms.

The Emerging Issues Tasks Force ("EITF") of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-1, "Applicability of the Pro Rata Method of Consolidation to Investments in Certain Partnerships and Other Unincorporated Joint Ventures." The EITF reached a consensus that a proportionate gross financial statement presentation (referred to as "proportionate consolidation" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) is not appropriate for an investment in an unincorporated legal entity accounted for by the equity method of accounting, unless the investee is in either the construction industry or an extractive industry where there is a longstanding practice of its use.

The consensus is applicable to financial statements for annual periods ending after June 15, 2000. We have applied the consensus to all comparative financial statements, restating them to conform with the consensus for all periods presented. The application of this consensus did not result in a restatement of previously reported partners' equity or results of operations, but did result in a recharacterization or reclassification of certain financial statements' captions and amounts. The affected data in the table above has been restated to provide comparable information for all periods presented.

Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 and the Cautionary Statements below.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our most critical business assumption is that our properties' occupancy will remain at a level which provides for debt payments and adequate working capital, currently and in the future. If occupancy were to fall below that level and remain at or below that level for a significant period of time, then our ability to make payments due under our debt agreements and to continue paying daily operational costs would be greatly affected.

We review properties for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. These circumstances include, but are not limited to, declines in cash flows and occupancy. We recognize an impairment of property when the estimated undiscounted operating income before depreciation and amortization is less than the carrying value of the property. To the extent an impairment has occurred, we charge to income the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. We may decide to sell properties that are held for use. The sales prices of these properties may differ from their carrying values.

18

Impact of Accounting Pronouncements

During the year ended December 31, 2002, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS No. 144 requires one accounting model to be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, whether previously held or used or newly acquired, and it broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. Our adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not impact the consolidated financial statements in 2002.

Occupancy Levels

The occupancy levels at our properties and joint ventures as of December 31 were as follows:


                                                                2002           2001            2000
                                                            -------------  -------------  --------------

Lakeshore Business Center Phase I (81.19%)(2)                    71%            89%            85%

(1)  Current occupancy levels are considered adequate to continue operation of our properties, with the exception of
     Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and III.
(2)  In our opinion, the decrease in year ending occupancy is only a temporary fluctuation and does not represent a
     permanent downward occupancy trend.
(3)  We expect occupancy levels to stabilize near those of Phase II over the next year, as Phase III completes its lease
     up phase of operations.

The average occupancy levels at our properties and joint ventures for the years ended December 31 were as follows:


                                                                2002           2001            2000

(1)  In our opinion, the decrease in average occupancy is only a temporary fluctuation and does not represent a
     permanent downward occupancy trend.
(2)  We expect occupancy levels to stabilize near those of Phases I and II over the next year, as Phase III completes its
     lease up phase of operations.

Ownership of Joint Ventures

On June 25, 2002, NTS-Properties Plus Ltd. merged with ORIG, LLC, ("ORIG") an affiliate of our General Partner. ORIG is the surviving entity as a result of this merger. NTS-Properties V continues to hold a 81.19% interest in the L/U II Joint Venture after the completion of the NTS- Properties Plus Ltd./ORIG Merger. ORIG now holds a 7.69% interest in the L/U II Joint Venture.

Several general trends have affected our recent operating results. Net revenues for residential have decreased slightly due to lower average occupancy at The Willows of Plainview Phase II, while commercial net revenues have increased slightly due to overall occupancy gains at Lakeshore Business Center. Operating expenses increased from 2000 levels primarily due to increased insurance expense. Interest expense essentially remained level while depreciation and amortization increased primarily as a result of the completion of Lakeshore Business Center Phase III.

If there has not been a material change in a particular line item on the Statements of Operations from one year to the next, we have omitted any discussion concerning that individual line item.

Rental Income

Rental income increased approximately $321,000, or 7%, from 2000 to 2001, primarily as a result of increased occupancy at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and III, and an increase in rental rates at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II. The increase is partially offset by a decrease in rental income from Commonwealth Business Center Phase II and The Willows of Plainview Phase II due to decreased occupancy.

Year-ending occupancy percentages represent occupancy only on a specific date; therefore, the above analysis considers average occupancy percentages which are more representative of the entire year's results.

Interest and Other Income

Interest and other income includes income earned from short-term investments made by us with cash reserves. Interest income decreased approximately $96,000, or 61%, from 2000 to 2001, as a result of a decrease in cash reserves available for investment.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased approximately $347,000, or 31%, from 2000 to 2001, primarily as the result of increased insurance expense at all of the Partnership's properties, increased legal fees at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I, II and III, and increased landscape maintenance at The Willows of Plainview Phase II. Partially offsetting the increase is a decrease in janitorial services at Commonwealth Business Center Phase II.

21

Loss on Disposal of Assets

The 2000 loss on disposal of assets can be attributed to the retirement of assets at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II and The Willows of Plainview Phase II which were not fully depreciated. The retirements were due to common area renovations at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II and wood and exterior renovations at The Willows of Plainview Phase II.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased approximately $96,000, or 9%, from 2001 to 2002, primarily due to regular principal payments on the mortgage at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II and The Willows of Plainview Phase II. Interest expense increased approximately $130,000, or 13%, from 2000 to 2001, primarily as a result of funds drawn on the Lakeshore Business Center Phase III construction loan.

Professional and Administrative Expenses

Professional and administrative expenses increased approximately $114,000, or 95%, from 2001 to 2002, primarily as a result of increased legal fees paid under and indemnification agreement with our General Partner.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization increased approximately $209,000, or 20%, from 2000 to 2001, primarily as a result of the Lakeshore Business Center Phase III construction completed in November 2000 resulting in building and land improvements capitalized in December 2000. Also contributing to the increase is the change in estimate, by management, of the useful lives of the Lakeshore Business Center Phase I roofs from 30 years to 16.5 years in anticipation of replacing the roofs. The aggregate cost of the Partnership's properties for federal tax purposes is approximately $41,271,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The majority of our cash flow is derived from operating activities. Cash flows used in investing activities consist of amounts spent for capital improvements at our properties. Cash flows used in financing activities consist of principal payments on mortgages payable, payment of loan costs and amounts paid to repurchase limited partnership interests. We do not expect any material changes in the mix and relative cost of capital resources from those in 2002.

22

The following table illustrates our cash flows provided by or used in operating activities, investing activities and financing activities:


                                                            2002           2001           2000

                                                       ==============  =============  =============

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased approximately $416,000, or 55%, from 2001 to 2002, primarily as a result of a decrease in accounts payable and a decrease in net operating results before non-cash items.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased approximately $355,000, or 32%, from 2000 to 2001, primarily as a result of a decrease in net operating results before non-cash items which was partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased approximately $2,859,000, or 85%, from 2000 to 2001, primarily as the result of decreased capital expenditures for the construction of Lakeshore Business Center Phase III.

Net cash used in financing activities decreased approximately $365,000, or 57%, from 2001 to 2002, primarily as the result of an increase in proceeds from the short-term mortgage on Commonwealth Business Center Phase II, partially offset by continued principal payments on the mortgage at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II and The Willows of Plainview Phase II.

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased approximately $820,000 from 2000 to 2001, primarily due to fewer additions to the Lakeshore Business Center Phase III construction loan and continued principal payments on the mortgage at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II and The Willows of Plainview Phase II.

Due to the fact that no distributions were made during 2002, 2001 or 2000, the table which presents that portion of the distributions that represents a return of capital based on Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States has been omitted.

On March 14, 2003 we reached an agreement with the mortgage lender on the Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II mortgages to suspend principal payments for twelve months beginning with the payments due May 1, 2003. The principal payments due the lender will continue to be paid and deposited by the lender into an escrow account. We will then be allowed to draw upon the escrowed funds for specific capital improvements listed in the agreement. They include tenant finish costs, heating and air conditioning equipment and roof replacements, which are expected to total approximately $987,000. The agreement does not change any terms of the existing mortgage loans.

23

However, the suspension of principal payments will result in significant balances remaining due on the loans at maturity in 2008, currently estimated to be approximately $ 757,000 and $ 814,000, respectively.

On March 14, 2003 we signed a tenant to a lease for approximately 20,000 square feet of the Lakeshore Business Center Phase III. The lease agreement calls for us to provide tenant finish costing approximately $705,000. We expect to use existing and new financing sources to make these expenditures. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in seeking new sources of financing for Lakeshore Business Center Phase III.

We have no other material commitments for renovations or capital improvements as of December 31, 2002.

We are making efforts to increase the occupancy levels at our properties. At Commonwealth Business Center Phase II, the leasing and renewal negotiations are conducted by leasing agents that are employees of NTS Development Company in Louisville, Kentucky. The leasing agents are located in the same city as the property. All advertising is coordinated by NTS Development Company's marketing staff located in Louisville, Kentucky. The leasing and renewal negotiations at Lakeshore Business Center Phases I, II and III are managed by an employee of NTS Development Company. At The Willows of Plainview Phase II, we have an on-site leasing staff that are employees of NTS Development Company, who facilitate all on-site visits from potential tenants, make visits to local companies to promote fully furnished apartments, negotiate lease renewals with current residents and coordinate all local advertising with NTS Development Company's marketing staff.

Leases at our commercial properties provide for tenants to contribute toward the payment of common area maintenance expenses, insurance and real estate taxes. These lease provisions, along with the fact that residential leases are generally for a period of one year, provide limited protection to our operations from the impact of inflation and changing prices.

Across the United States there have been recent reports of lawsuits against owners and managers of multi-family and commercial properties asserting claims of personal injury and property damage caused by the asserted presence of mold and other microbial organisms in residential units and commercial space. Some of these lawsuits have resulted in substantial monetary judgments or settlements. We have not, at present, been named as a defendant in any lawsuit that has alleged the presence of mold or other microbial organisms. Prior to September 13, 2002, we were insured against claims arising from the presence of mold due to water intrusion. However, since September 13, 2002, certain of our insurance carriers have excluded from insurance coverage property damage loss claims arising from the presence of mold, although certain of our insurance carriers do provide some coverage for personal injury claims. We are in the process of implementing protocols and procedures to prevent the build-up of mold and other microbial organisms in our properties, and are in the process of implementing more stringent maintenance, housekeeping and notification requirements for tenants in our properties. We believe that these measures will eliminate, or at least,

24

minimize any effect that mold or other microbial organisms could have on our tenants. To date, we have not incurred any material costs or liabilities relating to claims of mold exposure or to abate mold conditions. Because the law regarding mold is unsettled and subject to change, however, we can make no assurance that liabilities resulting from the presence of, or exposure to, mold or other microbial organisms will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations and our subsidiaries taken as a whole.

Cautionary Statements

Our liquidity, capital resources and results of operations are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to the following:

26

Item 7A - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is changes in interest rates. Our debt bears interest at a fixed rate with the exception of the $1,844,049 mortgage payable on Lakeshore Business Center Phase III, the $800,000 mortgage payable on Commonwealth Business Center Phase II, and the various notes payable on The Willows of Plainview Phase II. On December 31, 2002, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates would result in an approximate $380,000 decrease in the fair value of all debt and would increase interest expense on the variable rate mortgages by approximately $27,000 for the year.

Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data



REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS



To NTS-Properties V, a Maryland Limited Partnership:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of NTS-Properties V, a Maryland Limited Partnership (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, partners' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. Our audit also included the consolidated financial statement schedule listed in the index at Item 15(a). These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements of the Partnership and the consolidated financial statement schedule as of December 31, 2001, and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2001, were audited by other auditors who have ceased operations and whose report dated March 21, 2002, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the 2002 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of NTS-Properties V, a Maryland Limited Partnership as of December 31, 2002, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our opinion, the related consolidated financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

D) Allocation of Net Income (Loss) and Cash Distributions

Operating net cash receipts, as defined in the Partnership Agreement and which are made available for distribution will be distributed 1) 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partner until the limited partners have received their 8% preferred return as defined in the Partnership Agreement; 2) to the General Partner in an amount equal to approximately 10% of the limited partners 8% preferred return and 3) the remainder, 90% to the limited partners and 10% to the General Partner. Net operating income (loss), exclusive of depreciation, is allocated to the limited partners and the General Partner in proportion to their cash distributions. Net operating income, exclusive of depreciation, in excess of cash distributions shall be allocated as follows: (1) pro rata to all partners with a negative capital account in an amount to restore their respective negative capital account to zero; (2) 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partner until the limited partners have received cash distributions from all sources equal to their original capital; (3) the balance, 75% to the limited partners and 25% to the General Partner. Depreciation expense is allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partner for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

E) Tax Status

We have received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service stating that we are classified as a limited partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, we make no provision for income taxes. The taxable income or loss is passed through to the holders of partnership interests for inclusion on their individual income tax returns.

A reconciliation of net loss for financial statement purposes versus that for income tax reporting is as follows:


                                                                2002           2001            2000

F) Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

35

G) Cash and Equivalents

We have a cash management program which provides for the overnight investment of excess cash balances. Per an agreement with a bank, excess cash is invested in a repurchase agreement for U.S. Government or agency securities on a nightly basis. As of December 31, 2002, approximately $97,000 was transferred into the investment.

H) Cash and Equivalents - Restricted

Cash and equivalents - restricted represents: 1) funds received for residential security deposits and 2) funds with mortgage companies for property taxes in accordance with the loan agreements with said mortgage companies.

I) Basis of Property and Depreciation

Land, buildings and amenities are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Costs directly associated with the acquisition, development and construction of a project are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which are 5-30 years for land improvements, 3-30 years for buildings and improvements, 3-7 years for amenities and the applicable lease term for tenant improvements.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," specifies circumstances in which certain long-lived assets must be reviewed for impairment. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the sum of its expected future cash flows, the asset's carrying value must be written down to fair value. Application of this standard during the year ended December 31, 2002 did not result in an impairment loss.

J) Revenue Recognition - Rental Income and Capitalized Leasing Costs

We recognize revenue in accordance with each tenant's respective lease agreement. Certain of our lease agreements for the commercial properties are structured to include scheduled and specified rent increases over the lease term. For financial reporting purposes, the income from these leases is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Accrued income under these leases is included in accounts receivable and totaled $309,907 and $200,391 on December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. All commissions paid to commercial leasing agents and incentives paid to tenants are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the applicable lease term.

K) Advertising

We expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was immaterial to us during the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

36

L) Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and equivalents include cash on hand and short-term, highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less.

M) Impact of Accounting Pronouncements

During the year ended December 31, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS No. 144 requires one accounting model to be used for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, whether previously held or used or newly acquired, and it broadens the presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions. Our adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not impact the consolidated financial statements in 2002.

Note 2 - Concentration of Credit Risk

We own and operate or have a joint venture investment in commercial properties in Louisville, Kentucky, and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. We also have a joint venture investment in a residential property in Louisville, Kentucky.

Our financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and equivalents. We maintain our cash accounts primarily with banks located in Kentucky. The total cash balances are insured by the FDIC up to $100,000 per bank account. We may at times, in certain accounts, have deposits in excess of $100,000.

Note 3 - Tender Offers

Between October 13, 1998 and December 31, 2001, we and ORIG, LLC, ("ORIG") an affiliate of ours, (the "Offerors"), filed five tender offers with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Through the five tender offers, we repurchased 3,473 Interests for $720,715 at a price ranging from $205 to $230 per Interest. ORIG purchased 7,783 Interests for $1,743,640 at a price ranging from $205 to $230 per Interest. ORIG did not participate in the second tender offer. We did not participate in the fifth tender offer. Interests repurchased by us were retired. Interests purchased by ORIG are being held by it.

On July 31, 2002, ORIG amended its tender offer to extend the expiration date from August 9, 2002, to September 9, 2002.

ORIG's tender offer expired September 9, 2002. A total of 1,586 Interests were tendered. ORIG accepted all Interests tendered at a purchase price of $230 per Interest for a total of $364,780. We did not participate in this tender offer.

Note 8 - Commitments and Contingencies

We, as an owner of real estate, are subject to various environmental laws of federal, state and local governments. Compliance by us with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. However, we cannot predict the impact of new or changed laws or regulations on our current properties or on properties that we may acquire in the future.

On December 12, 2001, three individuals filed an action in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Contra Costa against our General Partner, the general partners of four public partnerships affiliated with us and several individuals and entities affiliated with us. The action purports to bring claims on behalf of a class of limited partners based on, among other things, tender offers made by the public partnerships and an affiliate of our General Partner. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the prices at which limited partnership interests were purchased in these tender offers were too low. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages and equitable relief, including an order directing the disposition of the properties owned by the public partnerships and the distribution of the proceeds. No amounts have been accrued as a liability for this action in our consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2002. Under an indemnification agreement with our General Partner, we are responsible for the costs of defending this action. For the year ended December 31, 2002, our share of these legal costs was approximately $80,000, which was expensed.

On September 24, 2002, in connection with the above-described lawsuit, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed two of the individuals and one of the entities that had objected to the lawsuit on personal jurisdiction grounds. This dismissal was the result of an agreement under which some defendants agreed not to contest jurisdiction and plaintiffs agreed to dismiss other defendants. Additionally,

on October 22, 2002, the court issued an order sustaining the demurrer of the general partners of three limited partnerships affiliated with us. The effect of this ruling is that these three general partners are no longer parties to the lawsuit. On the same date the court overruled the demurrer of our General Partner, the general partner of one other partnership affiliated with us and one individual and two entities affiliated with us. The entities and individuals whose demurrers were overruled, including our General Partner, remain defendants in the lawsuit. Our General Partner believes the lawsuit is without merit, and is vigorously defending it.

On February 27, 2003, two individuals filed a class and derivative action in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Kentucky against our General Partner, the general partners of three public partnerships affiliated with us and several individuals and entities affiliated with us. On March 21, 2003, the complaint was amended to include the general partners of a public partnership affiliated with us and a partnership that was affiliated with us but is no longer in existence. In the amended complaint, the plaintiffs purport to bring claims on behalf of a class of limited partners and derivatively on behalf of us and affiliated public partnerships based on alleged overpayments of fees, prohibited investments, improper failures to make distributions, purchases of limited partnership interests at insufficient prices and other violations of the limited partnership agreements. The plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, compensatory and punitive damages in an unspecified amount, an accounting, the appointment of a receiver or liquidating trustee, the entry of an order of dissolution against the public partnerships, a declaratory judgment, and injunctive relief. Our General Partner believes that this action is without merit, and intends to vigorously defend it.

We do not believe there is any other litigation threatened against us other than routine litigation arising out of the ordinary course of business, some of which is expected to be covered by insurance, none of which is expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations except as discussed herein.

Note 9 - Segment Reporting

Our reportable operating segments include - Residential and Commercial Real Estate Operations. The residential operations represent our ownership and operating results relative to an apartment community known as The Willows of Plainview Phase II. The commercial operations represent our ownership and operating results relative to suburban commercial office space known as Commonwealth Business Center Phase II and Lakeshore Business Center Phases I, II and III.

The financial information of the operating segments has been prepared using a management approach, which is consistent with the basis and manner in which our management internally reports financial information for the purposes of assisting in making internal operating decisions. Our management evaluated performance based on stand-alone operating segment net income.

Note 11 - Subsequent Events

On March 14, 2003 we reached an agreement with the mortgage lender on the Lakeshore Business Center Phases I and II mortgages to suspend principal payments for twelve months beginning with the payments due May 1, 2003. The principal payments due the lender will continue to be paid and deposited by the lender into an escrow account. We will then be allowed to draw upon the escrowed funds for specific capital improvement listed in the agreement. They include tenant finish costs, heating and air conditioning equipment and roof replacements. The agreement does not change any terms of the existing mortgage loans. However, the suspension of principal payments will result in significant balances remaining due on the loans at maturity, currently estimated to be approximately $ 757,000 and $ 814,000, respectively.

On March 14, 2003 we signed a tenant to a lease for approximately 20,000 square feet of the Lakeshore Business Center Phase III. The lease agreement calls for us to provide tenant finish costing approximately $705,000.
